Oh, I have run gnome-power-statistics from a terminal (window shows info normally), but when closing the power statistics window the terminal does not return to the prompt, as if gnome-power-statistics were still running. I opened System Monitor and the process is there indeed.
Also, while the process is running, a second call to the program (through indicator-power, for example) shows the window with no content. After killing the process (e.g. with Ctrl+C in the terminal, or in System Monitor), calling again gnome-power-statistics shows its window with the usual content, not empty. So seems gnome-power-statistics does not finish normally after its window is closed, affecting all subsequent runs (not showing any info) until finished manually. (this is using gnome-power-manager 3.4.0-0ubuntu1; didn't find version of gnome-power-statistics) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-power-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/968383 Title: gnome-power-statistics shows info on first time launched from indicator-power, but not subsequent times Status in “gnome-power-manager” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: When I click the power indicator icon, and the "Battery (h:mm left)" menu entry, the "Power Statistics" window opens and shows info about power, battery and so on. But when I do the same a second, third, and subsequent times, the Power Statistics window opens with an empty panel, i.e. without content. See the two screenshots attached below (first-time normal window and second-time empty window). The behavior is always consistent, across kernels (from *-18 to current one, *-20). This is a fresh install using the precise beta 1 image. Using Ubuntu 12.04 Precise Pangolin Beta 1 (64 bits) updated as of today. Computer is an HP Pavilion dm4-2120ss laptop with intel core i3 2330M CPU (Sandy Bridge) and intel graphics only (intel HD 3000 I believe).
